Hi All,
By now everyone has heard the hullabaloo concerning Sean Payton and that his contract has been voided by the NFL.
But don't think it has been discussed as to the reasons why that "escape clause" was inserted by Sean Payton into his contract.
Evidently, Saints owner Tom Benson, who is 85 years old this year, has designated his grand daughter Rita Benson LeBlanc to be the heir of the team whenever he passes away.
Must be some friction between GM Mickey Loomis and Rita and maybe SP and Rita. The clause was inserted by SP to escape his contract should Mickey Loomis ever leave the organization.
Evidently Rita Benson LeBlanc is a spoiled little B and has gone through 30 personal assistants in the last 6 years. Tom Benson even suspended her from the organization for a couple of months till she straightened up.
This could mean many things but sounds like everything is not exactly hunky dory in Saintsville.
